About our shower tray repair in Clayworth

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. We’re often asked to fix scratches in the surface and a tray that flexes, on stone resin, enamelled steel and ceramic.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Clayworth and across Nottinghamshire.

Before and after: an old shower tray refinished by Surface Doctor

For landlords and businesses

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Questions from Clayworth

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You are under no obligation.

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Typically, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Stick to gentle cleaners

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

What we’re called out for in Clayworth

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks generally point to an uneven base.

The things clients normally mention when they call include:

  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Movement when you stand on it

What we cannot put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

  • Ceramic
  • Acrylic
  • Stone resin
  • Cast iron
  • Enamelled steel

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, tidy-up included.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your photos

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your DN22 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
